RELIEF AND MINERAL RESOURCES The western part of the continent is occupied by the Cordillera mountain system (McKinley, 6193 m), the eastern part is occupied by vast plains, plateaus, and mid-altitude mountains. In the northeast of North America is the Laurentian Rise. The interior regions are the (high) Great Plains and (low) Central Plains. The central, large part of North America is occupied by the Precambrian North American (Canadian) platform. The eastern edge of the continent is bordered by the mountain peaks of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Labrador, and the Appalachians. Along the southeastern coast there are coastal lowlands - the Atlantic and Mexican. Mineral deposits of global importance: iron ore, nickel, cobalt, gold, uranium (Laurentine Upland), coal, oil, flammable gases, and potassium salts (in Canada). The richest oil and gas deposits (the Mexican lowland, the northern part of the Canadian Arctic archipelago), asbestos deposits in the Northern Appalachians. The Cordillera has numerous deposits of non-ferrous and rare metals.

CLIMATE The climate ranges from arctic in the far north to tropical in the center. America and the West Indies, oceanic in coastal areas, continental in inland areas. Average temperatures in January increase from -36 °C (in the north of the Canadian Arctic Arch.) to 20 °C (in the south of Florida and the Mexican Highlands), in July - from 4 °C in the north of the Canadian Arctic Arch. up to 32 °C in the southwestern United States. The greatest amount of precipitation falls on the Pacific coast of Alaska and Canada and in the northwestern United States (2000-3000 mm per year); the southeastern regions of the mainland receive 1000-1500 mm, the Central Plains - 400-1200 mm, the intermountain valleys of the subtropical and tropical regions of the Cordillera - 100-200 mm.

SOIL AND VEGETATION The soil and vegetation cover in the east of the continent is represented by a series of latitudinal zones from arctic deserts in the north to tropical evergreen forests in the south (in the Cordillera - various spectrums of altitudinal zones), south of 47° N. w. the zones are elongated predominantly in the meridional direction. Forests occupy about 1/3 of the territory; they are represented by typical taiga in the central regions of Canada, tall coniferous forests on the Pacific coast of Alaska, Canada and the USA, mixed and broad-leaved forests in the Great Lakes basin, evergreen coniferous and mixed forests in the southeast of the continent and in the southern part of the Cordillera. In the interior of the continent, steppe and semi-desert vegetation predominates. In the inner belt of the Cordillera, deserts are developed in some places. The soil and vegetation cover of North America has been greatly modified by humans (especially in the United States).
